Save the people, as a dog in Humanity when it woofs to release in May

Get ready for a game that is really one for the dogs, because you play as a dog. Revealed during the State of Play, Humanity is a game in which you wake up as a dog and discover you can command with a simple woof, how people move. Check out the reveal trailer for it below.

Given your powers of control, it is up to you to guide the folks through 90-plus stages filled with obstacles, enemies, puzzles, unlockable skills, and wild boss fights in Story Mode. While you can command folks, you are not the only being who can. There is a rival group to the people – the Others – who appear as you progress through the story. Tensions between the Others and the people will rise and boil over, but…perhaps there's a way to resolve the conflict.

For those who want to test themselves, you can always enter the level creator. Here you can make anything, from a straightforward puzzle, to an action packed stage, or even an artful sculpture. Once your masterpiece is created, you can share it online for others to enjoy.

The game is coming to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and PC, with support both PlayStation VR headsets and there is a demo available now, at least for a limited time. Right now the game is aiming for a May release date, but there is nothing firmer yet.
